It emphasizes that salvation cannot be earned by human effort, even when the Holy Spirit produces good works, because justification is only through a second covenant head—Jesus Christ—in Whom God establishes the covenant of grace. Scripture, particularly Romans 5, 1 Corinthians 15, and Genesis 3, underscores that redemption cannot come through the Covenant of Works.
